Proper Installation on Gauge Pod?

So I went to install my OEM Center Gauge pod today, the one that goes behind the shifter. And it just didn't look right. I removed the storage tray behind it, but there was too much of a gap above the gauge pod and too much of a gap behind it.

I was wondering.. does anyone have a picture of a proper installation, cause something just doesn't seem right. If I can't figure out how to install this then I'm just gonna sell the gauge pod and the two gauges.

It looks nice and all, I used Megan Gauges so they're blacked out and sleek looking. But I just can't live with the way it looks with that gap there.

If anyone can help, tha'd be great. Thanks guys...

I got it at Outmotoring, thanks to Aaron. Wasn't much at all.. $9.00 shipping I think?

The thing is, it doesn't show the angle that I'm looking for there. There's this pretty large gap above the gauges. And the gauges don't really have anywhere to bolt down to either.

I'm going to end up selling it, cause it just doesn't look good at all. Gauges and everything, they're sitting here on my desk.
